Woorden: Chris Volz. Redemption. All My Life.


There?s been an awful lot of talk these days
about the damage that?s been done and all the things that I say.
I stand tall and accept the blame,
if it?ll make it any easier to walk away (from us).
I never tried to bring out any pain but the situation doesn?t seem to lead to gain,
So how do I compromise when I see the degradation that?s inside your eyes?
But you don?t even know my name.
I?ve waited all my life to find a way to stop you as you?re walking by,
But you never saw the signs shouting out for you to not leave me behind.
I never shied away from the light,
I?ve never been the kind of person to avoid a fight,
So why won?t you realise there?s a reason I?m continuing to fantasise (about us)?
I think about you every day,
it?s the only thing that seems to melt the pain away,
So why can?t you realise there?s a feeling that I feel when I look in your eyes?
But you don?t even know my name.
I?ve waited all my life to find a way to stop you as you?re walking by,
But you never saw the signs shouting out for you to not leave me behind.
I need to know your name, I think that we?re one in the same.
I?ve waited all my life, but you never saw the signs
